GIFs as Signatures

I notice that everytime I come across a signature that is a GIF my screen just slows way down and even sometimes stops fuctioning for seconds at a time. Is this a common problem or is it because I'm a dinosaur and still use IE?

It's pretty annoying and would love to not have this issue.

Have you tried another browser to see if they run fine? Just wondering if it's an IE issue or maybe something regarding other necessary upgrades (Flash, video card, etc.)

Do you experience the same issue when using others sites, or is it just a PSD issue?

Turning off signatures is definitely a temporary solution until you get the computer issues figured out.

I shut off sigs because when I click on the icon by the thread title to go to the first unread post and people have sigs that get sized down (the yellow bar on top), it doesn't go to the first unread post because of the oversized sigs.
